Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

Hi All

There is a thread operating on the Lived Experience Forum under Night Shift where members who are having trouble sleeping for any reason give a bit of a shout-out, to see if there is anyone else sleepless and looking for company. It's been such a great thing, I thought I would start one over here too.

I have had the odd few nights where I have woken up on and off, and my kids have been having a bit of trouble some nights too, depending on what has happened during the day.

Being a carer can be lonely too, so if you are making an after-midnight cup of something hot, and wonder who else might be doing that too, maybe have a look-in here and see if anyone else is about.

Still a bit sulky @Former-Member but improving day by day. Was a bit upset being left behind again on the weekend. Looking forward to having him home again.

Jelly cat is more settled or happy @Former-Member Now that she likes & spends most time outside in backyard.

She opted to stay inside this morning with it raining & cold.

Meow meow let me in. Meow meow let me out - I'm operating a constant door opening service...

@Adge it is well known that cats have slaves while dogs have masters, we have a pet flap to make life easier.

Good afternoon all

Trust everyone is having a good day.

Slow afternoon here, I am currently hiding at the university trying to get some work achieved without any luck. Will need to head home around 3 to organise children after school and get some homework done.

Day off today @Determined got a bit of weeding done this morning. Meeting a couple of girlfriends for coffee this afternoon and hope to get some cooking once back home.

Contemplating heading home early for a nap here @Former-Member had another early start today and now I am fighting nodding off in front of the computer and wondering if 1/2 hour nap followed up by a brisk walk may wake me up.

I have a lot of course work to prepare for tomorrows class so cant afford the time out but if I am getting nothing productive achieved anyway I may get more done by taking a brief break.

Yes I've heard that saying @Former-Member

A cat thinks it's the master, you're the servant.

A dog sees you as master.

A pig sees people as equals.

Pigs are very intelligent.

I'm not the master with jelly cat - she thinks she is...

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

My parents used to keep pigs @Adge (for food not as pets) they are very intelligent, and clean if you provide them a clean environment to live in.

Mums favourite sow escaped once and devoured more than 1/2 of her chooks lol. It went from favourite to the freezer overnight lol.
